For some people it might be a little too early to be thinking about Halloween costumes
Halloween is my favorite holiday b/c unlike any other day of the year its accepted to run around in bizarre costumes and and really take on a different character.
This year I’m inspired to explore the dark side of Halloween and be something besides…pretty and half-naked 
Hmm..only issue is squeezing into a corset!
When I was living in East TN It was always a struggle for me to find a place to develop lomography film. So it laid forgotten about on a shelf above my bed.
On a hot sunny day, me & Aaron finally took my Holga & my Diana out for a spin on our fave street of South Congress here in Austin.
I can’t wait to see how they turned out! Maybe it’s the wait that make the end product of film cameras that much more rewarding.
I was inspired by the natural saturation due to sun leaks, and the ability for double exposures out of these fun toy cameras.
Here’s some fascinating images that keep me inspired:
Although not taken by a Holga or a Diana, I enjoy seeing different elements to a picture.
The layers add to these already captivating photos (source)
Inspiration Ideas: (image source)
Use a rope/ or leather wrap diff color strings, add beads, brass nuts, or washers.
lots of knots later :..my end result happy diy-ing!
I want to cross a few borders, hit up the local markets for these bags!
Tribal colors, prints and patterns. The perfect bag to transition from summer to fall.

A book shelf made out of just books
All you need is brackets, and books
I really love this effortless shelving, it looks like the books are levitating.
Likeee?
It’s always on my “hobbies to pick up list” I need to read more often.
A friend suggested reading twilight saying that I would never want to put it down, truth is-it was ok
And after a few chapters, I put it down. Just like most books I start–I never finish.
I was the kid that read books to look at the pictures, 16 years later I’m still guilty of that habit.
Once someone told me that how you were at 6 is your true self.
A time in your life where self-awareness, and the judgment of others didn’t matter much to you.
Without 2nd thoughts you did what you want, said what you thought, and your imagination was your number 1 companion.
So if I can’t get into 500 page novels, so be it. But this book I can visually read all day long!
Mushroom Girls Virus by Deanne Cheuk
Book is sold out –so IF anyone can get their hands on it pass it my way!!
Inspired by the natural patterns and colors, I made a little feather head piece today.
Perfect for summertime frolicking 
So fun so light and the best part is its incredibly Easy Peasy, so try this at home, really–
Took a leather band, tied a couple feathers, strung some beads, and wrapped some dyed string (like hair wrapping) and ta-da done!
Summer just flew past me, I can’t believe its already August.
A part of me wants to just sit still & cling on to right now– in hopes that my youth will seem like it lasts a lifetime.
Another part of me (my anxious nature) is eager to take a leap, hungry for something new, strange, and wonderful.
Main Inspiration: Karen O’s head dress b/c is badass. Neon-ed up..
I hardly ever wear eye makeup, so I decided to switch it up for shows and raves.
Might be extreme but alot of fun and pretty easy.
A video ( of someone who can do it ALOT better haha)
Go the extra step and use some glow in the dark paint!
–Gonzo seems to approve–
I can spend hours browsing through these unique hand made goods!
Here’s a few of my picks:
So vibrant–yet earthy, My kind of combination check out her collection
Rad table-never seen anything like it, would love to have this in my living room asap!!
Textured wall tiles–speaks for itself. This is def one of my favorite finds on etsy EVER!

Just couldn’t resist, I love donuts in all forms, and I must say I have a weakness for both jewelry and sweets. Don’t we all?
Lastly, silhouette frames. I normally feel corny when it comes to the subject of love/couples, but this is cute without the lovey dovey feel.
I would actually love to hang this over mine and Aaron’s bed <3 And of course I want one of my doggie Gonzo too!
Check her out her collection, she does custom designs such as these!
Anywho…until nextime!
